Past tense of puke; vomited or forced out food or liquid from the stomach.
Simple past tense of 'puke,' from the same uncertain origin (possibly imitative or from Old Norse). The '-ed' ending marks past tense in English.
The past tense 'puked' feels different from the present 'puking' because we use it to describe completed sickness events—'I puked last night'—which shifts the focus from the immediate action to the unpleasant memory, making the word feel even more dramatic.
